 New
Ultra Line “adjustable” composite pole ends are now on
the market. Starting in 2004, Forespar has come through with another
design break through with the addition on all “UTR 3”
and 3 1/2” trigger style ends of an adjustable end fitting.
With the addition of an adjustment screw for the trigger spring tension,
these new ends are now “adjustable” in how easy or how
hard the trigger release is set. It’s simple, effective and
allows adjustability for heavy or light air, heavy handed rock stars
or everyday sailors. Ultra adjustable ends only require a screwdriver
– and in seconds, the trigger tension can be set to your foredeck
crew’s personal preference.BOAT SHOWS Forespar will have a factory booth at the Chicago Strictly Sail Show (1/29-2/1), the Miami Strictly Sail Show (2/12-2/17) and the Pacific Sail Expo Show at Jack London Square in Oakland, CA (4/14-4/18).
